mashed potatoes

Well it’s day three of the wisdom teeth fiasco, and I’m starting to feel a lot better. I’ve been able to keep down more food and haven’t been nauseous all the time. I can even sit at the computer for a while without getting all sick. Yay! It’s no fun taking crazy pain killers when you’re sick the whole time. Don’t get me wrong, I am still in some pain (just not sick to my stomach) but the hydrocodone makes it alll better.

haha.. so I just remembered a great memory from the day I got my teeth out… I was sitting in the waiting room and they had just taken a small boy in to get one tooth removed. All the sudden they cranked this loud ass music as they’re putting the kid to sleep. The next song that happens to be on is that old Coldplay song. So imagine hearing the rockout guitar part (I think it’s probably the only song where they rock out haha), and this kid screaming bloody murder under it. It was like it was from a movie lol.. it was so loud.. how’s that for a settling feeling. “Oh I’m about to go in there to get my teeth extracted… *SCREAM SCREAM NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IT WAS ALL YELLOW SCREAAAAAM*” haha.. it turns out the kid was just scared and didn’t know what was going on as they gave him the iv and stuff.

wisdom teeth suck

Well I got my wisdom teeth out Tuesday, and frankly it sucks. The surgery wasn’t bad.. I don’t even remember falling asleep. Nor do I remember waking up.. I was apparently giggling and flicking my numb lips like an idiot. I sort of remember leaving. My mom said “It’s like you’re drunk!” as she walked me out to the car. I’m on something like hydrocodone for pain killers, which works very well. =D The only problem is that I’ve been sick to my stomach a lot. I’m having a real hard time keeping down food. Damn it, I want pizza and various other foods that I can’t chew/stomach if I could chew. ): Oh well.. at least it’s a pretty good diet. (; When I’m not feeling nauseous, I’m extremely bored and lonely.. there’s only so much sleeping and tv watching one person can do. Where’s a boyfriend to keep you company and make you feel better when you need one? Oh yeah, non existant. =D Lizzy brought me the next best thing last night - an issue of cosmo and a cherry slushy. (:

automobiles: 6 / me: 0

Here is why I dislike automobiles of any kind at the moment. =D

We broke down 4 times all together on the tour.
#1 - The fuel pump goes up in the van. We spend $500 to fix it, even though it’s not our van (hopefully we’ll get paid back).
#2 - The transmission starts going bad that same day. Overdrive is fried but we figure out the rest is okay and make it to Atlanta.
#3 - We lose some more gears on the way to the show the next day and can’t shift to make it up a hill.
#4 - We can’t make it up a huge hill to get it to the shop, get it towed and leave it in a shop in Atlanta.

Then as if it couldn’t get anymore ironic.. after we parked the ryder truck we had to rent at home, we heard a hissing and found a huge screw in the tire. Oh wait. There’s more. I get home and try to go out the next day but my car won’t start becuase it’s been sitting for two weeks. Ha!
